just be staright forward.. tell her u dont like her always joking around about things. That you dont take her bragging as a joking way. she is your freind you should be able to talk to her in a mature way.

Sit her down and talk with her about it. She's your friend, therefore, she'll appreciate it (at least she should) telling her what's going on in your head. Put her in one of the people she is gossiping about shoes. Ask her how she would like it if she were constantly talked about. As for the bragging thing, tell her it gets a tad annoying, even if she is kidding. Don't be mean about it, just tell how you are feeling. Hope this helps.

Well just sit away from her when shes gossiping about your friends. or bring those friends over and shell get the point. Tell your friends shes gossiping about you. and then gossip about her friends. its turn around time, do what she has dne to you.

For the book thing:
Just don't let it get to you my friends do it to me too. If it really does annoy you though, don't react to it the next time she says something like that. Just ignore her. She'll stop.

For the gossiping:
I know how easily insulted some girls can get so say in the least rude way you can "I would like it if you stop gossiping about my friends, how would you like it?" is she continues, i think you should start getting a little more serious be like in a sarcastic way under your breathe say "Thats really nice to talk about my friends like that." She'll either get the hint and stop or if she doesn't after all that, to tell you the truth, just stop being her friend.

that whole jealousy thing, thats your problmem. you shouldnt be getting so easily annoyed. BUT the gossiping is ok to be annoyed with. pretty much, if she gossips about your friends, be like, "um, theyre my friends, could you like not insult them" or just completely ignore her. once she gets the message she'll stop, otherwise something is wrong with her.

Well, you just need to be straight up with her.
Tell her how it makes you feel when she brags about stuff, and how you really dont like that she talks about your friends.

Tell her she really needs to respect you as a friend, and try to not gossip around you.

tell her to stop wtih everythingg.. tell her that if she wants to talk about them she can talk about them to someone else because their your friends too... and let her know not to be so braggy..

- you don't have to be mean saying it.. it's the tone of your voice and your body actions that woudl make her think you're being mean.. so if you use nice tone and not in a mean way you shoudl be set. =]

Tell her how you feel. Just be like, "Okay.. please don't talk about my friends like that. I don't think you'd want someone gossiping behind your back." Don't be mean about it.. just tell her how you feel! Hopefully she'll stop, good luck.
